In Amanda’s Own Words
Come and join me as I venture into the deepest corners of my mind. They say a picture paints a thousand words however, mine clearly offer so much more. Above all, they are a gateway for me to explore my subconscious thus revealing deep secrets.
Previously, being guided by my intuition was too frightening to contemplate. However, when it came to my photography, I had absolutely no hesitation. Of course, when looking back, the sense of freedom and peace it gave me was invaluable. Indeed, at the time, I had no idea why venturing out into a creepy place, made me feel so wonderfully alive!
When I was out with my camera and using my senses of sight, I was in the present moment. Clearly, by being creative, I was resting my mind. I didn’t have a care in the world when I was out exploring. Today, I now know that I was practicing the art of mindfulness. No wonder I felt so alive and at peace.
Unfortunately, I still remember those voices that are now but a simple whisper. Often, there was one voice in particular telling me that I will never make a living as a photographer.
How right they were!
As a result of this type of conditioning, my existing lack of self-worth was kept in check. Hence, I pursued my health and safety career instead, which ultimately led me further down a path of self-destruction. Since my awakening, I now realise the importance of being your true-self and not allowing irrational fear to hold you back. We all have our paths to follow and I look back on mine with gratitude. Now, in 2023, I am ready to explore my true-self, by going inwards to begin exploring my shadows.
Life comes full circle and when will it end?
General Anxiety Disorder and depression was a consequence of my self-destruction. Of course, my photography took a hit, but I am back. My life is, yet again, coming full circle.
Now, I am pleased to tell you that I am truly my authentic-self. Thus, my journey of inner healing is teaching me so much about energy. Bizarrely, I have always known this, however, I didn’t quite understand its power.
The power of fear is immensely strong and can cause great misery if you don’t challenge it!
Enter Amanda’s Mind
Today, I am enjoying this process of reacquainting myself with my Gothic horror photography.
Additionally, I’m reinvesting my love and passion back into something that did keep me sane.
Life comes full circle when exploring my art work and writing about it. The energy of journaling is powerfully healing.
While some use Tarot cards to perform shadow work, I am currently using my photography. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy using the tarot cards, but my photography is revealing so many secrets. The contrast of shadow and light is mesmerising and I’m sure to become lost in its beauty.
Finally, stay tuned for new Gothic horror photography. Enjoy!
